An interesting retelling of a classic tale.

It was a short read but nonetheless enjoyable. I found it very much along the style of the Gary Oldman as Dracula story; but instead of Mina being the object of Vlad's affection, it was the story's hero - Benjamin.

There were many of the elements of the Vlad Tepes story, the trio of vampire maidens in dancing dresses, wolves, the Carpathian mountains, an erstwhile female waiting at home for the hero and so on. It wasn't a gut wrencher, it was a predictable story given it was based on the story of Dracula, but the ending was a twist, and I enjoyed it.
